I was looking to pursue a career in Business Administration, but in 1994 got hired as a file clerk for my father’s insurance agent while still attending college, so I was kind of thrown into this industry. But the good thing is I loved it, so I never looked back. I joined “Team Peakes” in 2009 and love the dynamics of the agency & staff; we are a great extended family. Being deemed the “Office Mom” sets the tone for how I like to care for my clients and treat them like family. Helping people has always been something I enjoy and I’m always looking to answer my clients questions and take care of their insurance. Being married, a mother of three great kids and helping take care of our guinea pig and white German Shepard who really does not understand he is a big dog and wants to be indoors all day and has a habit of scolding us every time he is left alone, I always have something to keep me busy. I love cooking and baking for my family as well my extended work family; tamales, cakes and burritos are some of the favorites.
